DUI stands for 'Driving Under the Influence,' which means operating a vehicle while impaired by alcohol, drugs, or other substances. Being charged with a DUI may result in serious legal consequences, including fines, license suspension, and possible jail time.
Will I lose my license after a DUI?
A DUI arrest often results in temporary license suspension. The length and conditions depend on factors like your blood alcohol level and prior offenses. You may request a hearing to contest the suspension within a specified time frame.
Can I refuse a breathalyzer test?
You can refuse a breathalyzer, but there are consequences. States have implied consent laws, so refusal often leads to automatic license suspension or revocation. It may also be used as evidence against you in court.
How long does a DUI stay on my record?
A DUI can stay on your driving record for several years, affecting insurance rates and background checks. The exact duration varies by state. In many places, DUIs stay on your criminal record indefinitely unless expunged through legal action.
